Just finished watching Frost/Nixon

[Dory Berkowitz-Bukowski]

And I can't help wondering if David Frost felt bad about the whole thing? Can I get an American perspective please?

I haven't seen it, but heard it was good. Worth a watch?



edit: Can I get an Aussie perspective plz?

Definitely worth a watch. Not sure if the good acting has manipulated me completely but I feel bad that Frost hounded Nixon into a confession.

I guess I can't really comment if I haven't seen the movie, but is there a problem with that? If he did it, he did it.


Maybe drool can tell us firsthand how it all went down.

I was wondering if anybody on here was around at the time, if not I'll have to rely on my dads memory.

I just feel bad cos Nixon was old and it made me sad to see someone so disgraced.

You do shitty things, shitty things should happen to you. I love the part where he probably would have won.

too long, too dull. any movie about nixon is.

and i like movies like this - and i hoped that after waiting ages for it to be released it would have been somewhat interesting.

save the energy for the Fog of War or something of it's ilk.

i liked it and think that probably frost made enough money/fame that he didn't care if nixon's q rating took a hit.

SyFy just announced Frost/Nixon 2. Set 100 years in the future, Nixon is resurrected as a genetically enhanced warrior of the future to stop the evil Frost, whom has comeback as a leader of a pack of werewolves.

Nixon was a master manipulator and the true definition of a corrupt politician. He got caught for probably the smallest of the crimes he committed. I don't feel sorry for him at all. He helped usher in the current age of politics.

"Richard Nixon is a no good, lying bastard. He can lie out
of both sides of his mouth at the same time, and if he ever
caught himself telling the truth, he'd lie just to
keep his hand in." -- Harry S. Truman

Nixon was no match for this President. Not surprising but interesting photo that was just found. Mildly NSFW in the article photo.
